    48: Size 12

    Send us a text Can the way parents talk about their own bodies shape their children's self-esteem for years to come? Witness the lasting effects of generational attitudes toward body image as I share personal memories from my childhood, like the shopping trips with my mom where her self-criticism left a deep imprint on my own body perceptions. From the pressures of the dance and theater worlds to the suffocating societal standards that dictate our self-worth, I recount my journey to self-acceptance and the liberating realization that our value isn't defined by a number on a tag.
